21. Bright

Why not forget all traditions and go wild with a bright coloured tree of your favourite colour? Like… pink?

Black may seem way too Nightmare Before Christmas… mixing up Halloween and Christmas… but decoration with light silvers and whites, this can be a real stand out tree option.

Size

23. For the mantel

Use slightly smaller trees to decorate around the house instead of plants!

24. Tiny!

Decorate your tree with mini trees! In bauble form!

25. The bigger…
